About 3Scale

  • Saa S

  • Barcelona, Spain

  • 10-50 employees

  • 2007

We founded 3scale in 2007 because we believed the world would become web enabled, and that APIs would be required. That guess has proven correct on both counts. We now power APIs for more than 500 organizations of all sizes across many industries. And still, we think this transformation is just picking up speed. There is much more to come and more work to be done.

Our goal is to enable organizations and institutions worldwide, large and small, to successfully open, manage, and use APIs. We do it as openly as possible, and always with community in mind.

With offices in San Francisco USA, and Barcelona Spain. We’re a growing global team and there is plenty of opportunity to learn from others and share your smarts. We work hard, play often, and just generally enjoy each others’ company. Join us.
